Dave Rubin
The green bar is what you spend every month on stuff you need like a car and a house. The red bar is what you spend on non essentials like magazines, entertainment, things like that. This scary black bar is what you spend on things that no one ever, ever needs. Like multiple magic sets, professional bass fishing equipment. How did you do this so fast? Is this PowerPoint foreign guys, we are back in action. I'm Dave Rubin. This is the Rubin Report live from Miami in the free state of Florida. It is February 24, 2025. Where has the year gone already? As always, we are live streaming on Rumble, on YouTube and on Locals. We have a post game show immediately after the program today. Rubinreport.locals.com and I am super excited to doing the show today. And just back I missed you guys. I missed doing the show, I missed this connection, this thing that we do. I met all of these people in London who wanted me to do live shows out there. We did a ton of interviews. I think we got a couple pictures of some of what we did over in London. It really was just a spectacular trip. So of course we were there mainly for the three day ARC conference that Jordan Peterson's alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference there. You can see me speaking at the main podium there interviewing Jordan. I did Piers Morgan show. I debated a socialist which I believe we either have put up on YouTube and rumble already or it will be up shortly. It's not very difficult debating a socialist. Held a panel with Eric Weinstein and a couple other people. And then that other picture of me standing there with the red background. I had my first ever Oxford Union debate. It is the most illustrious elite debate club in the entire world. And I am happy to report that, that yes, yours truly, alongside Naomi Wolf, we won the debate. The debate was should cancel culture be canceled. So it was basically a referendum on free speech and we won the debate. We'll have video for you on that in a week or so. It was very exciting to be in Oxford. I've spoke at Oxford before but I've never done the official debate. So that was fantastic. To not only do the debate, but of course to win was great. And you know, it was very interesting, I have to say. And we'll talk more about this over the coming weeks. It was very interesting to be in a place, Britain particularly in London, where you know, they've got all sorts of demographic problems, there are cultural problems. There were many, many conversations happening at Ark and when we went out to pubs and elsewhere where people are feeling that they are kind of Losing their country. And, you know, at Ark, there were, I believe, 96 countries represented there. Over 4,000 people, 96 countries represented. And everybody is looking to America right now, like, holy co. You guys are a month into this Trump thing and it's working. It's exciting again. And can we fix our countries? That really was the theme of the entire conference. And I think it will be a theme going ahead as we roll out 20, 25. And then, of course, I get back to the United States of America, this wonderful place where we can say what we want, which is unlike many other places on earth, including the uk, where people are arrested for memes and more. It was the first time in my life that I ever. I had a debate with Melissa Chen, who you guys know, she's been show many times and several other people. We were having dinner and there was a debate about could we tweet some things about the UK and London. And I was like, I just don't know that I want to be hung up at customs. That's a weird thing to have to flit through my mind. Right? But anyway, I get back to the United States, have the weekend, see the kids, and what happens yesterday, it's actually incredible. It's incredible. Joy Reid, ladies and gentlemen, she's done. They got rid of her from the mental institution, the televised mental institution known as msnbc. That's what we're gonna start with today. She's gone. They said, that's it. We're releasing you, you crazy woman. We're releasing you to the world. They opened up the doors of the mental institution and they're letting the crazy people out. So Joy Reid is gone. We're gonna connect that to citizen journalism and the entire flip on what's going on with mainstream and what guys like me are doing. And somebody like Dan Bongino, who is literally the number one news streame world. Well, as of last night, I think it happened about 8pm last night. He will now be in the Trump administration. So there's just so many good things happening. And yes, I'm just happy to be back. It's good to see everybody. So let's just dive right into it. Joy Reid, possibly the most racist person on television. You know, Megyn Kelly and I have a debate. Megyn's position was that Joy Reid was the most racist person on television. I have felt that it's Sunny Hostin, but I understand that you can debate that endlessly. I think I have Megyn Kelly on tomorrow. We will continue to have that debate, but I guess I won by default cuz Joy Reid Ain't on TV no more. We got some info from the Independent. MSNBC has canceled Joy Reid's evening news show and held a tense meeting with her staff after the news was leaked to the press. The final episode of the readout will air this week, the New York Times reports her slot will be replaced by a show led by a trio of hosts, Democratic strategist Simone Sanders Townsend, former Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele, and journalist Alicia Menendez. They currently host the Weeknd, which airs on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Rebecca Cutler, the network's newly appointed leader, made the call amid larger plans to overhaul MSNBC's programming, according to the Times. Now media journalist Oliver Darcy reports Reid's staff found out they were losing their jobs in a tense and emotional 30 minute impromptu meeting on Sunday morning. Staffers were reportedly frustrated that they learned about the show shutting down from media reports rather than directly from leadership. The network has also removed Alex Wagner from her weekday evening spot, and Darcy reports Cutler held a similar meeting with the show's staff. However, Wagner is expected to stay with MSNBC as a contributor. Now many are mourning Reid's departure. I owe the television part of my career to Joy Reid, as do so many other black voices y'all never would have heard of if not for her, journalist Eli Mizell wrote on X. And that's why she's gone. They can treat black folks as interchangeable, but everybody black knows that Joy was indispensable. So look guys, it's a little bittersweet. We've had a lot of laughs at her expense. Someone as just panderingly thin in her idea set the blondness, then the shaved head, then the wig. I'm gonna miss all of it. She was paid a cool 3mil a year to spread that utter drivel. Her ratings actually dropped 53% after the election. Now that's almost unthinkable considering how MSNBC's ratings were. And Joy, because I will miss you, I'd like to offer you a little advice. A little career advice. I know a little something about going independent. That's what everybody's doing. I was a little early in on that. Built a tech company so that anyone who's creating anything online can have a subscriber base. And you know, you can create something for yourself and hire people like the good people I have in this room. Why don't you try that? Why don't you try to go independent and see if it works out? See if anyone is willing to throw in. I don't know, four or five bucks a month to have you lecture them about how evil and racist they are and how horrible America is and how white supremacists are coming to get everybody and how we were founded on slavery and all of those things. See, if there is a market for that. I suspect there isn't, but it's worth a shot. And I will go out of my way to make sure that you get the best tech support@locals.com, bar none. Absolutely bar none. So this is. Yes, it's very bittersweet for me. You know, we've had a lot of laughs at this woman's expense, but it also is indicative, I would say, guys, joking aside for a second. It's a little indicative. I'm starting to cry. This is very sad for me. You know, joking aside for a second. It is interesting that the people who have lied about everything as they subsequently get fired and. Right. We see this happen with the Don Lemons and then the Brian Stelters and then some of them end up back on CNN. Or you see the pronouns be removed from AOC's Twitter profile or Pete Buttigieg profile. It's like, if you guys were telling the truth, it doesn't matter if you win or lose. If you're telling the truth. Let's say really telling the truth about how horrible and racist America is or how important these pronouns are and everything else. And you still lost the election, right? But you were telling the truth. You'd be. You'd be have more of an audience now than ever. Right? Your fight would be more just than ever. Your desire to keep pronouns in your bio. But they dump all their pronouns and the networks are just like, oh, these people lie to everybody. And we lost the culture war now. So, ta ta. Connor, do we have a clip? Because I don't know how many more times we're gonna be able to talk about her. She's gonna slide into irrelevance, much like Jamal Bowman. Right? These people are completely interchangeable. Actually, do we have a compilation of some of her greatest hits? Could you play that right now? I did not go out on July 4th and would not. The idea of going to a mass gathering, a parade or a big fireworks thing outside seems insane to me, to be blunt, in America, because is awash with guns. And now people don't just have them. They seem to want to shoot people with them. And Twitter now is useless to me if people like me are leaving. I don't know how Twitter survives. There is still a lot that we don't know about Monday's horrific and deadly mass shooting at a Nashville Christian school. But after police said the suspect was transgender, one thing is clear. Tennessee's already under siege. Transgender community is terrified. President DeSantis would ban artistic freedom of speech, of course, and wield the federal government like a sledgehammer against businesses who do anything that displeases him and other members of the far right. Let me just be clear. I got into Harvard only because of affirmative action. They now are racing to enact these first amendment limiting laws to limit things like drag shows. You have rampant book banning. I think Tennessee might be the most aggressive book banning state, even more so than Florida. And so they were essentially saying it's too dangerous to allow children to be exposed to a drag show. Where one side stands for freedom while the other meets the textbook definition of fascism, namely a far right dictatorial regime like Hitler's Germany or Franco's Spain or Mussolini's Italy, but also white ruled South Africa before Mandela and the black majority took control. It's actually like completely bananas that that woman was paid to sit in a chair and share her thoughts. That compilation right there is exactly why I call it the televised mental institution known as MSMEC. The endless craziness, the hysteria, the 180 on truth when it comes to every important issue. But I do want to show you one more, because when we were looking through all that and there's so many compilations, believe me, guys, I could have just given you an hour of just her nonsense. But when we were going through all the compilations, there was one clip that kept sitting in my head from her over the last couple years that really, I thought, illustrated not just how sort of not bright she is. Right? Like, everyone gets she's not bright. And you get that she's kind of actually a neo racist and that it's hard to say does she believe any of things she says. But you may remember this is about two and a half years ago, maybe three years ago at this point, there was a shooting in Uvalde, Texas, where I think about 18 young kids at an elementary school were killed. And then they also killed two or three teachers. This is Joy Reid. It was either that night going on television or the next night. And this one just really stuck in my head. Go. Let's start with mental health. As far as we know, there was no mental health issue with the individual who stole the futures of 19 children in Uvalde, Texas. That line right there, like, if you want to see what an activist, not a journalist is, it's that right there. So whether it was that night that the shooting had happened or it was the next day, that somehow there was no evidence that it was a mental health issue. I remember covering that, and I think I can basically repeat exactly what I said that day, which was, by definition, if you murder 19 innocent children and all children are innocent, you have a mental health problem. But what they so want is every time, because they believe in politics more than anything else, right? Because their worldview is based on how do we accumulate power through the political system. So she doesn't want you to think that there's a mental health issue that might lead to a random person shooting 19 kids at elementary school. They want you to think, oh, no, it's only about the guns. Now, meanwhile, of course, it was a good guy with the gun who ultimately killed the shooter. But that right there, like that thing, all of it, all of it, the racism, the gender confusion. Why doesn't she want children around drag shows? And shooting kids has nothing to do with mental health. It's like, lady, I'm not for cancel culture. I just debated cancel culture at Oxford Union, and I won. And we'll have that up in about two weeks, as I said. But this is not cancel culture. Someone who is horrible at their job as a newscaster. You're supposed to be a newscaster. It's actually an honorable profession until all of you people ruined it and made a mockery of it. Here's a couple tweets from her if you just want a little bit more. God, I'm gonna miss her. Look at these three. These are just so insane. Nooses never really disappeared as messages of a very specific kind of terror. But every time they're used, my God, it's chilling. Praying for Jussie's full recovery and for us all. That's her retweeting the complete hoax of Jussie Smollett, who literally staged his own lynching. Absolutely insane. So she got that one wrong. That was in January of 19. This is from March of 20. On the other end of the Trump spectrum, this coronavirus crisis has shown some politicians to be their best, principally New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, who literally killed hundreds, if not thousands of people because he sent the old people back into the old age homes. And I think we've got one more here. And again, guys, there is a plethora, an unending river of these. Look at this. Michael. She spelled Michael wrong. Michael Avenatti versus Michael Cohen's attorney is feeling like the Harlem Globetrotters versus the Washington Generals. Yes. I guess maybe she kind of got that one right in that the Globetrotters versus the Generals was all staged and acting and fake and kayfabe and that's what Michael Avenatti and Michael Cohen were. So maybe I'll give her a little something that. Here's. We're just gonna keep going. We're just gonna keep going. Here's more of Joy, less joy. Just wondering, do you think people with funct derangement syndrome know they have it? Even idiots. And second question, did you steal Trump's haircut or did he steal yours? Cultural appropriation Haircut right there. She didn't like that too much. Joy Reid, everybody. Trump derangement syndrome full swing. And then the T. I know, I know. We could just keep going, guys. The point of all of this is these people are paid millions of dollars to sit in those chairs to lie. You have to understand, it's interesting to me that Joy Reid only only made $3 million. Virtually everyone you know would love to make 3 million do a year to do pretty much nothing and be famous and get all the accolades and everything else along that comes with that. My, my proposition to her at the top of the show is go independent now and let's see if your actual worth in the market, not just because a big corporation can hand you money to do awful things. That's kind of an easy gig, actually. Again, that's why you're an interchangeable part. They can get anyone else to do that. But go independent. And let's see, can you generate $3 million while. While spouting that nonsense? I think not, lady. Donald Trump put this up on Truth Social. I love the I word here. Lowlife chairman of Comcast, he called it. Not Comcast. Comcast. I like that. Brian Roberts, the owner of Ratings Challenged NBC and msdnc, has finally gotten the nerve to fire one of the least talented people in television, the mentally obnoxious racist Joy Reid. Based on her ratings, which were virtually non existent, she should have been canned long ago along with everyone else who works there. Also thrown out was Alex Wagner, the sub on the seriously failing Rachel Maddow show. Rachel rarely shows up because she knows there's nobody watching. And she also knows that she's got less television Persona than virtually anyone on television. Perhaps, except perhaps Joy Reid. Then of course, there's low IQ con man Al Sharpton, who has perhaps the lowest TV ratings in the history of television. What is he doing to Brian Roberts to stay on the air? This whole corrupt operation is nothing more than an illegal arm of the Democrat party. They should be forced to pay vast sums of money for the damage they've done to our country. Fake news is an unpardonable sin. Now, you know what's interesting about this? Again, putting aside whether you like the Trump is still doing these types of things or not for a moment, like in this case, it's completely fine with me. I think he's actually hitting on something else. As we uncover all this USAID stuff and the general fraud and criminal activity that has been going on with your dollars, the dollars that they have taken from we the people, I think you actually are going to see some level of strange collusion between the money that these nonprofits got from us, we the people, and how much they funneled to these television shows. So think about during COVID when every time you turn on television and what would you get during the commercial breaks? You'd get brought to you by Pfizer. Okay, that's one version of it. But what were all the other commercials? Stay at home, six feet, Social distancing brought to you by the people for safety. And we were funding all of that. So there is some weird collusion going on with the advertisers as it pertains to all of this. But Joy Reid, I guess this is it, right? Like I don't know, what are you gonna do? Again, I wish you the best of luck. I hope for my own sake, you know, for what we do here, the jokes, the noodling, we're gonna miss you and we hope that you come back. But if this is it, well, don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. Guys, let's talk about home title lock for a minute and then we will talk about how the worm has turned and actual journalism is start to come back. Attention homeowners. When's the last time you checked the title to your home? That's the legal document that proves you own it. And if your answer is never, you need to hear about a fast growing crime the FBI calls house stealing. It all starts with a simple one page document called a quit claim deed. Criminals forge these documents, filling them out with your information, signing it with a fake signature and stamping it with a notary seal that just cost 20 bucks online. They then file it with a county official and then that's it. Your home can be transferred out of your neighborhood name without you even knowing. Here's the scary part. The scammers don't want your house. They're after your equity. They take out loans using your home as collateral, then vanish, leaving you with a devastating financial and legal mess. But don't worry, you can protect yourself from this despicable crime with triple lock protection from Home Title Lock. Start by checking your home's title to make sure you're not already a victim.

All right, so as we say goodbye to Joy Reid and again we wish her luck and we hope that she will go independent, find all of her fans and be crowdfunded and get out there and keep saying the truth because if that's what you were doing, we know that you'd want to continue doing that. As that happens, that's to the backdrop of really what the sort of, you know, the big story, I suppose, in the world right now is the Donald Trump situation. It's Donald Trump, it's Doge, it's that we're leading the world again. Capitalism is back. The culture war has shifted all those things. And what is connected to that, of course, is that the media has completely flipped. The people who have lied about pretty much everything from Russia collusion to very fine people to Covid and all the rest, they are on the way out. They are being tuned out of in droves and people are tuning in to shows like this. And that's really fantastic. And we should be held to a certain standard. I hope you hold me to a very high standard. And if we don't hit that standard, I hope you call me out on it. Well, a little bit before I left for London, I was honored for the second straight year to host the Real Clear Politics Samizat Awards. These are free speech awards that they give out. They've done it for two years in a row. I've hosted for two years. So I guess I'm like the Billy Crystal of the thing. And one of the people that we gave the award to this year was Linda Yaccarino, who of course is, she's the number two at Twitter, in essence, behind Elon Musk. She's the CEO of Twitter. And I asked her, so we'll connect this to the Joy Reid thing and then everything else we're doing today, I asked her about, about how now that Twitter, that X in essence is the center of the center for media and the mainstream Media is falling apart. How they are now in the bullseye and how she feels about that. But just to organize a company properly and to do your mission, how concerned are you that you now have the aim of the entire machine that we largely feel like we're beating to some extent, at least temporarily, but that it's coming for you guys? I. It's always coming, all day, every day. But I have to say we're highly encouraged. First of all, the platform is growing and is stronger than ever before because of what exactly you said. It actually happened organically on the platform. You are the media now. Right? So our users to your comments have a think about it as a two way street of accessibility to information. And when you think about what what legacy media is all about is the control old gatekeepers of that one way distribution or broadcast of information completely designed to have you think one way only. So X broke all of that open and actually gave our users a vote of confidence. So that's where we're at right now. Right. And it is an absolutely beautiful thing. The old gatekeepers are on the way out now. You can always have that conversation. We've had it many times here about does a society like we're a country of about 350 million people with so many people who think different things and different ideas of how the world should work and everything else. Do you need some level of gatekeeping within the mainstream so that we're not constantly just going completely off the rails with every conspiracy theory and everything? I think there's some validity to that. The problem is when the gatekeepers are so absolutely awful, when they are the ones who lied about more than the people that they're always accusing of lying, then we have a real problem. Our hands. So X came in and Rumble came in and Locals and all of these other things came in and you got to hear different voices and you get to make some choices on how you get information. What I really love about what you said there of course is it is a two way street. I view this show and how we interact with you guys and do the post game shows and respond to people on different platforms, it's becoming a two way street. They wanted it one way. Giant corporation pays someone who's not particularly talented an awful lot of money to regurgitate nonsense and eventually the people caught up on it. Now if you'd like some examples of how they regurgitate nonsense, how they don't deserve your eyeballs or your attention or your dollars, I think we've got a couple compilations of that. Joe Biden has vision, he has knowledge. He has a strategic thinker. This is a very sharp president. He is sharp. He is on top of things. President Biden is strong. He exercises. He rides his bike. He's sharp mentally. He's pretty sharp. And he's got a very good grasp of issues. He is sharp, intensely probing and detail oriented and focused. I guess I should clear my mind here a little bit and not say what I'm really thinking. It's sad in retrospect. It's sad that they lied about everything, right? And you can see those were largely all Democrats or people that worked in the administration. But those lies were then laundered through cnn, right? It was not until it's less than a year ago. Think about it. It wasn't until the last week in June of 2024 at that debate where it finally burst forth. And yet for some reason I had been talking about it for years and I'm not the only one. And I'm sure you were talking about it at your kitchen table and with your friends and family about what had happened to Joe Biden. That's just one example, right, that we can give you of that. But it's one thing to be bad at your job. It's one thing just to be bad. It's another thing to do the complete reverse of your job. And that's what they've done. But you might be watching that going dav, come on, that's old stuff. The Biden dementia stuff. That's old stuff. Give me something new. Give me some new stuff where they're lying and being racist and a bunch. Okay, I'll do it. Go. Donald Trump is saying everything Vladimir Putin would say. And you mentioned the American people generally don't care about what's going on over there. The American president right now could be a plant, could be a Russian asset. Let me think about that. Here I am. I know it's early in the morning to say something like that. We don't have evidence of that. I mean, the point about their positions being aligned, I think there are a lot of families out there who don't believe boys should play girl sports. They're not boys. I'm not going to listen to transphobia at this table. I am not going to listen to you call a trans girl a boy, a slur. I'm going to interrupt. This is not how it is change. They're not boys. This as. Let's talk about Kamala Harris, black lesbian, who Donald Trump doesn't believe has genes as Good as his. Is he going to attempt to exterminate. Why do you believe that? Damn near said it. That's why, David. That's why. Because he's okay. And I'm not going to be lectured by some white man who has no idea what he's talking about and is trying to rewrite history, man. I mean, the fact that that's from like two weeks ago. Yes. Donald Trump's coming out for the black lesbians. It's complete and utter nonsense. You get it? It's complete and utter nonsense. And the fact that the other clip was from about a month ago. And yes, sorry, there is a difference between boys and girls. You guys get all that stuff. But so they've done everything to confuse everybody, to lie about everything. They pushed it as far as they could. Right. I think years from now, 10 years from now, when we really can look back on this, hopefully in a golden age of America, and we just can with clear eyes, how the hell did that thing happen? When we're looking at it in that frame, we're still too close to it. I think when we look at it that way, we're gonna be like, boy, all of those people, what were they actually doing? They almost destroyed the most precious gift that man has ever created, which is the United States of America. So what's their next move right now? That's really the question, right? So people are tuning out. They're firing these people, they're trying to reshuffle the chairs and on the deck as the Titanic is sinking. The next move, I think, well, as I keep saying, it will be violence. The base, the Hamas loving, anti American base of the Democrat Party is going to be more and more violent. We're going to see that. But the spokespeople, the congresswomen and the rest of them, they can't be outright violent. So what they can do, well, they can talk down to the rest of us. They can really just make it seem like we're dumb and stupid and all of these things while they're so great. And now check this out. This is Jasmine Crockett. Now we've shown a couple videos of Jasmine Crockett. She's like the new AOC. AOC's lost a little bit of the shine lately. She doesn't seem as relevant anymore. So in comes Jasmine Crockett. And here is Jasmine Crockett and she doesn't like you very much. Like, and we know, like, this isn't me trying to throw shade. These are just the facts. When you look at who's Voting for who? The less educated folk. And when I say educated, I'm not even talking about formal education. I'm talking about people that literally don't want to read and enlighten themselves on facts. Those are the people that typically vote for the Republicans. And it's one of the reasons that we have to stop writing in theses as Democrats. Right. Like percent approval rating, it's higher than it's ever been. 70% believe that he's fulfilling his promises, and 45% believe Democrats should be more moderate. What do you take away? I think there's a lot to make of those numbers. What's your takeaway from that? My takeaway is just like the election. We've got to do better at education. People don't understand. Ah, so you're an idiot. And as if that woman is the prime example of what a good education is. But that's it, right? Those people are stupid. That's why they don't view the world the way I look at them. Well, let me put this out here. Jasmine Crockett. I did just a couple Weeks ago in D.C. we finally, after reaching out to dozens, if not hundreds of Democrats on Capitol Hill over the last couple years, we finally got to sit down with Ro Khanna. And I treated him with the same exact respect. And I conducted the interview the exact same way I would do any other interview. If you haven't seen it yet, I think it's quite enlightening. We talked about a lot of our differences, and his feelings on whatever the matter might be is up to you to decide if you think they're right or wrong or anything else. That's how I conduct an interview. Jasmine Crockett, my door is open for you. I would love to talk to you about whether or not it is that the American people are just uneducated in. And that's why they're voting, not the way you want them to vote. But as I said a moment ago, this is gonna be the new move. The base is gonna become violent. And the thought leaders, if that's what I can call them, are gonna be constantly telling you that all of the Trump people and everyone who isn't a perfect progressive is an idiot. Here is. And I apologize in advance. Cause I just can't stand this woman. Her accent's driving me crazy. She's vile and disgusting and a terrorism supporter. And she married her brother and. And a whole bunch. Yeah, it's Ilhan Omar. These people are just idiots. I really. You know, I'm at the point where it's become really hard to have an intellectual debate with any of these people because the level of stupidity that they are displaying every single day is frankly embarrassing, not just in Congress, but as Americans. And the fact that these people are allowed to say just the most ridiculous things tells you that the dumbing of the United States has arrived. Because. Because how else do we get a Trump presidency again? Wow. The fact that we're allowed to say these things. Well, listen to me, you jihadist bitch. I live in the United States of America. We have something called the Constitution of the United States. And you know what's attached to that thing? It's the Bill of Rights. And you know what the First Amendment in the Bill of Rights is, is? It's the right to free speech. Just because you married your brother and you came here and you attained power in Minnesota does not mean you get to take that away from us. But, Ilhan, you seem to be afraid to debate people. You're very concerned. You'd like to debate people, but they're all idiots and morons, right? Well, I will debate you, Ilhan Omar. I will debate you. I will do it live. I'm not doing it at my house. You can't come here. But we can find a place to do it. And I will debate you. And we can see who's an idiot and who's a moron and who's uneducated and everything else. And I hate to tell you who's gonna win that debate. It is not going to be you, lady, but okay. And yes, she did marry her brother. You should Google that. And she does hate America. And the fact that she's a first generation immigrant who has attained this kind of power and then spends all of her days trying to destroy the very country she came from. And she was for defunding the police, and she was for all of the BLM stuff, and she's pro Hamas and all of those things like, okay, fine, you get it. But how close to the precipice did we get? Well, you may remember another woman we're just going through, ladies, you're not gonna hear much of in the future as America succeeds today. And Kamala Harris was the installed, let's say, candidate of the machine who cooed the old man. And hopefully we'll find out what happened with all of that one day, too. She spoke a couple days ago at the NAACP Image Awards, which is an award show for Broadway actors. That's what she's been left with. And giant shoulder pads notwithstanding, I think you will find her speech rather well, you just tell me who's dumb. How about that? But some look at this moment and rightly feel the way weight of history. Some see the flames on our horizons, the rising waters in our cities, the shadows gathering over our democracy and ask what do we do now? But we know exactly what to do because we have done it before and we will do it again. For those rights to be maintained, which means we have to be vigilant. And it's just the nature of it. I mean, look what I mean, it's this beautiful play and everything that we know, he ended it. He was suppressed. He had to suppress so much. But he knew and he, you know, he took those risks. But we have to, we have to be clear eyed. And it doesn't mean we don't see the beauty in everything, right? These things all coexist. But I believe we fight for something, not against something. And that's our optimism. Thank you so much. I believe we fight forcing that, everybody. Do you realize how close we got? So damn close. Do you know what you would feel like? I'd be doing this show from Gulag 32B. You'd probably be with me. I wouldn't even have to do it on the Internet. We'd all be in a room together going, she really dropped the ball on that one. It's just meaningless. I'm just more interested in the shoulder pads. Have they just come back? Our shoulder pads? Just. Why would, if you were a woman, why would you want giant pads on your shoulders? So that you look like an evil robot. I don't understand it. But you see, it's just nothing. So they're telling you that you're the idiot, you're the moron, you're uneducated, while at the same time they're just spouting that nonsense. And by the way, fighting against something and fighting for something, sometimes it's really worth fighting against something. I'm pretty sure all of us right now, I include you guys watching this, we've been fighting against something for years. The evil monster that is the woke, right? We've been fighting against that and the lies and all of those things. And now what's cool, I'm tipping you off to the next segment, is that we get to fight for something. So sometimes you fight against something and sometimes you fight for something. I'm gonna. Can we get me a jacket with better shoulder pads? Let me just try it. Tomorrow I'm just gonna try to wear giant ass shoulder pads and see if it maybe, maybe people they Did a study and it was like people, like people with big shoulders.

You know it's interesting, the fight against something, fight for something. That concept, right? So I just illustrated why sometimes you fight against something, sometimes you fight for something. But the reason she's saying it and then they're going is because everything they do is based on feelings. Who is that small, fast talking Jew who always says facts don't care about your feelings? Shapiro something. What? He's always the point of that. The point of that is facts don't care about your feelings is that there's a reality that exists. You could feel however you want about it, but reality exists. They like the reverse approach on that. It sounds mean, like, oh, fight against something. Why would you fight against something? You're so against stuff versus fight, but you should be for stuff. We're for stuff over here. And you're against stuff. So you're bad. You're bad. But I'm fighting for stuff right now. And you know what? There is amazing stuff to fight for. Q Elon Musk. Check this out. Consistent with President Real Donald Trump's instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week. Week Failure to respond will be taken as a reg as a resignation. So this is absolutely incredible. So literally this email is now out there for federal employees. We have an image of the email. They put it out this weekend. This is just absolutely incredible. Libs, a TikTok tweeted out and wrote, literally takes two minutes to respond. Reporting to your boss about what you accomplished at work is very standard. Why is this so controversial? And literally, there's the email right there. It's comes from HR and it says in the title, what did you do last week? Please reply to this email with approximately five bullets of what you accomplished last week and CC your manager. Please do not send any classified information, links or attachments. Deadline is this Monday at noon. So that's today. That's literally in about 20 minutes from now. Yes. There are issues of classified documents and things of that nature that they go out of their way to say, don't give us something classified right here. But this is so the media machine, all of the lefties, the usual subjects, people are going bananas online over this thing. How could you ask these people to tell you what they're doing? And what they are finding out is that so many of these people have been checked out of their jobs. They don't think that a certain percentage of the emails are gonna be even open. Cause these people don't even check their emails. Watch this. Watch this. This. Is this just contrasting the level of which the government has hired people and asked them to do nothing versus what goes on here at the Rubin Report. Connor, say something you did last week. Filmed interviews. Filmed interviews. Phoenix. What did you do last week? Talk to people. Talk to people. Joseph, you did not join us in London. What were you doing here? Created a jobs portal. I created a jobs portal. I don't even know what he's talking about, but I think that that probably has something to do with what we do over here. Oh, it's for Dave. Rubin.com. very exciting. Okay, that's nice to hear. The point is, I pay these people money, and in exchange for the money that I give them, they do a job and I'm the boss. So if I was to say to them, we have a weekly team meeting every Monday. We do it after our Monday show. We're gonna do it today, and I say to them, what are you doing this week? And if they didn't show up to the meeting or if they had nothing to say, I would have to have a separate meeting with them. Fortunately, I don't hire government employees. I hire college dropouts. So that's why this thing's going well. We got more From Elon, Elon, the reason this matters is that a significant number of people who are supposed to be working for the government are doing so little work that they are not checking their email at all. In some cases, we believe non existent people or the identities of dead people are being used to collect paychecks. In other words, there is outright fraud. So this is wild, people. This is just so absolutely consistent with everything that has happened for this last month and also consistent with the idea, idea of fighting for something. What are we fighting for right now? We pushed away all of these morons, they're becoming increasingly hysterical and mean and all of that stuff. Okay, fine. And you're an idiot for not believing what they believe. But what are we doing? We're fighting for something. What are we fighting for? We're fighting for transparency. We're fighting for we the people. We're fighting to make sure that the government is actually working for us instead of abusing us. And now it's proliferating literally all over the globe. CPAC was this weekend and here is Elon Musk, a chainsaw and Javier Milei. This is the chainsaw for bureaucracy. Chainsaw. It's also fun. That's the point. What's the chainsaw? Well, the chainsaw illustrates exactly what Elon and Donald Trump are doing here, which is hacking away at the bureaucrats state that is filled with fraud and actually criminal negligence and a whole bunch more. And of course having Milei up there. Milei, a guy who came into Argentina what, a year and a half ago, barely two years ago, and took an economy that was in the tank and is now completely reversed it and they are absolutely thriving. I really want to get to Buenos Aires this year. That's on the list because something is working in Argentina and it ain't rocket science. Even though we have a freaking rocket science. Elon Musk doing it for us right here. Here is Trump and Musk talking to Sean Hannity about why having this endless deficit, this endless printing of money, never having enough because we're always spending so much, it's probably not the greatest thing ever. I really want to, I really want to emphasize to people that this is a very important point. If we don't solve the deficit, there won't be money for medical care, there won't be money for Social Security. Security. We either solve the deficit or all we'll be doing is paying debt. Nobody. It's gotta be solved or there's no medical care, there's no Social Security, there's no nothing. That's Gotta be solved. It's not optional. America will go bankrupt if this is not done. That's why I'm here. That's why I'm here. Again, the guy doesn't have to be here. The guy's got a couple other jobs doing important things. But we all kind of knew this was true. It's never sexy to talk about the debt, right? You don't want to be a politician and come in and be like, we're going to have to hack away at the state. We're gonna have to look at entitlements. We're gonna have to look at all these things. But here they are. They're doing it, and they're uncovering crazy things. But I've been saying this for years, and talking about the debt is not even a sexy thing for me to have to do. But think about it. If you end up. If we as a country, if we just owe China an insane amount of money, trillions of dollars, because we keep borrowing on top of borrowing, and every year we get a budget coming in. Think about your own home's budget budget, or think about your business's budget or anything else. If you're always overspending, eventually the bank cuts you off. The way we've done it basically is we either print more money, thus devaluing the money, or we borrow more from China and we end up borrowing on borrowing, so we can't even pay back the interest. Well, eventually. Think about a Mafia movie. We're in the midst of rewatching Sopranos. What happens when you can't pay off your debts? A guy with a bat shows up to your house and he takes you out to East Ruthie Rutherford. Nothing good has ever happened in East Rutherford. Now, the issue, of course, for us is that we have nukes and big weapons and an army. So that was. That's the one thing that basically stops China from cashing in the debt. But it does not. It does not work that way over time. So what we're doing right now is actually making sure that we can cover our debts and that we can get rid of the waste and everything else. It's beautiful because we're fighting for something, which I know is very upsetting to that lady with the giant shoulder pads. We'll have more on the thing that we're fighting for. And guess what? It may not be Ukraine. Much more. But first, Rumble Premium Free speech is under attack, but Rumble refuses to back down. Rumble has always believed in empowering voices, no matter how unpopular.

That's what we're doing, right? Like we threw the chess, the checkers table up. The pieces are all over the place. We're trying to put this thing back together. We're showing that government can work. We're looking at all, everything. We're looking at our internal domestic policies and spending. We're looking at our external foreign policies. We're looking at absolutely everything. And we're reevaluating. And as we do that, people who have been on the gravy train forever are not happy. Because it's nice to be on the gravy train. Oh, I got a whole bunch of money to do nothing. That's pretty good. Most people would like that. So now let's jump over to this Ukraine, Russia situation. We are gonna start by showing you video of Voldemort Zelensky, who is a former comedian who somehow became the president of Ukraine. Here he is talking about how, you know, yes, we're gonna get a whole bunch of money from you Americans, but we're going to pay you back. This is 2023. You're going to get paid back. Take a look. If you can't give us, can give us some financial support. Okay, okay. Please give us a credit and we will give you back money. Okay, so that's interesting. In 2023, if you can't just give it to us now, everybody would like that, right? Could just give me some cash. I want some cash. But if you can't just give me the cash, give us credit. Credit, we'll pay you back. Well, here he is just a couple days ago saying that, no, it was not a credit. It's a fact. No, for the small percentage of you who are not native Ukrainian speakers, basically what he said, there was no, it wasn't a Loan. It was a grant. The same guy who said, yeah, if you can't just give it to us, we'll pay it back. Now, it was a grant, not a loan. Now that's not even taking a position on anything having to do with Russia, Ukraine. The point of all of this right now of what we are doing in the government is we are just trying to make sense of your money and the institutions that have laundered it and stolen it and manipulated you and everything else. And it does seem like an awful lot of that laundering. And maybe the epicenter of all of the lies does seem to be Ukraine. So check this out from Truth Social Donald Trump. Think of it. A modestly successful comedian, Voldemort Zelensky talked the United States of America into spending $350 billion billion to go into a war that couldn't be won, that never had to start, but a war that he without the US And Trump will never be able to settle. The United states has spent $200 billion more than Europe and Europe's money is guaranteed while the United States will get nothing back. Why didn't sleepy Joe Biden demand equalization in that this war is far more important to Europe than it is to us. We have a big beautiful ocean as separation. On top of this, Zelensky admits that half of the money we sent him is missed thing. He refuses to have elections, is in very low, is very low in Ukrainian polls. And the only thing that he was good at was playing Biden like a fiddle, a dictator without elections. Zelensky better move faster. He's not going to have a country left. In the meantime, we are successfully negotiate negotiating an end to the war with Russia, something all admit only Trump and the Trump administration can do. Biden never tried. Europe has failed to bring peace and Zelensky probably wants to keep the gravy train going. I love Ukraine, but Zelensky has done a terrible job. His country is in shatters and millions have unnecessarily died. And so it continues. So again guys, without, without rehashing the entire war, whether you think Putin is bad or good or Zelensky is bad or good or anything else, we are within our right to say what is best for America. And when we've given money in the past, where did that money go? Are there receipts for any of it? And does does the endless gravy train, does it just continue regardless of the behavior of the people that we are giving the money to? And is it if we are just endlessly funneling money to someone or to a country, is it getting it any closer to peace, if that's what the goal is? Unless the goal hasn't been peace. Unless the goal actually was a giant money laundering situation. I don't know. I mean, I did watch Ozark. I have a little understanding of how money laundering works. Here is our, I would say, spectacular. New Secretary of State Marco Rubio talking about what it's been like to negotiate with Zelensky. When President Trump posts that President Zelensky is a dictator without elections. What are you thinking? I think President Trump is very upset at President Zelensky, and in some cases, and rightfully so. Look, number one, Joe Biden had frustrations with Zelensky. People shouldn't forget it. There are newspaper articles out there about how he cursed at him in a phone call because Zelenskyy, instead of saying thank you for all your help, is immediately out there messaging what we're not doing or what he's not getting. I think the second thing is, frankly, I was personally very upset because we had a conversation with President Zelensky, the vice president and I, the three of us, and we discussed this issue about the mineral rights. And we explained to them, look, we want to be in joint venture with you, not because we're trying to steal from your country, but because we think that's actually a security guarantee. If we're your partner in an important economic endeavor, we get to get paid back some of the money. The taxpayers have given close to $200 billion. And it also now we have a vested interest in the security of Ukraine. And he said, sure, we want to do this deal. It makes all the sense in the world. The only thing is, I need to run it through my legislative process. They have to approve it. I read two days later that Zelenskyy's out there saying, I rejected the deal. I told him, no way, that we're not doing that. Well, that's not what happened in that meeting. So you start to get upset by somebody. We're trying to help these guys. One of the points the president made in his messaging is not that we don't care about Ukraine, but Ukraine is on another continent. You know, it doesn't directly impact the daily lives of Americans. We care about it because it has implications for our allies and ultimately for the world. There should be some level of gratitude here about this. And when you don't see it and you see him out there accusing the president of living in a world of disinformation, that's highly, very counterproductive. And I Don't need to explain to you or anybody else, Donald Trump's not President. Trump's not the kind of person that's going to sit there and take that. He's very transparent. He's going to tell you exactly how he feels. And he sent a message that he's not going to get gamed here. He's willing to work on peace because he cares about Ukraine, and he hopes Zelensky will be a partner in that and not someone who's out there putting this sort of counter messaging to try to, you know, hustle us in that regard. That's not going to be productive here. I got to tell you guys, as a Floridian, I'm very proud of that guy. He obviously was our senator here for many years and did a really great job at that. Ran for president against Trump years ago. That didn't work out. But when you listen to him there, the way he's able to explain these things, and it's common, it's clear, and it's like, you know, he's telling the truth. He's saying, we sat down with this guy. We tried to figure out something that makes sense. What makes sense? Well, it doesn't make sense to endlessly pour money into you, but you guys are rich when it comes to these minerals. If we can figure out a partnership there, then we have a vested interest, actually, in defending you, because we're getting some of the benefits. Benefits of these important minerals. We're kind of in business together. That means we might be able to give you some security arrangements, et cetera, et cetera. And it's like they had that conversation, it sounded like something was going to happen, and then it's like, well, we'll find out. We'll find out. You don't have to take Rubio's word for it. But if Zelenskyy just basically backed out or said, I was never gonna do it or anything else, which that does seem to be the truth to me. We will find out. But again, we don't owe anyone everything endlessly without explanation. And that seems to be the problem. Now, let's bring this back to our shores, because obviously, the. The main thing in the culture wars, if you remove, let's say that America is an evil, systemically racist place that was founded to destroy black people. If you put that one aside for a second. The main thing in the culture wars, of course, has been whether boys or girls. Hint, they're not. Check this out, because this, this fight is continuing as much as we're doing Damage to all of the bad guys on this. There is a fight a Bruin in Maine right now. Check this out from Libs of TikTok. A boy pretending to be a girl just won first place in the girls Maine state class B championship. Before he pretended to be a girl, he was fifth place on the boys team. He's a cheater trying to invade women's spaces to get ahead. Connor, leave this image up for a second. So the picture that you're seeing there, the circled. If you're listening to the audio podcast, I hope you can just jump on YouTube or rumble later and check out this picture, these two pictures, because this boy who is placed fit there, that is. That is a boy. That is a boy, right? Like it's. It's obvious. I don't know what's going on with him internally in terms of how he feels about himself or anything else, but physically that is a boy. And now look at that other picture. Suddenly he is magically pretending to be a girl. And you will not believe it. He's placing number one. He was when he was a boy. Look, he's kind of shorter than those other guys or at least one of them's on a. On the same height state, you know, the same stage as him. But he looks physically fit and ready to be an athlete. And then suddenly. But he's placing fifth and then magically he's number one when he's a girl. Oh, and he happens to be towering over. So this is happening in Maine and it's still going on right now. I mean, that picture right there, sometimes you don't need the picture of just the boy cr. The boy dressed as a girl crushing the girl in rest wrestling or smashing the volleyball into some little girl's face or the rest. Like just that right there where they're not even competing is enough to show you how ridiculous all of this is. Anyway, there is now a fight, a brewing between Donald Trump, who is cutting funding for states that are doing this dribble, and Maine, where they're all in on this. Janet Mills is the governor of Maine. And here is Trump calling out Maine's governor to her face. The NCAA has complied immediately, by the way. That's good. But I understand Maine. Maine. Is Maine here, the governor of Maine. Are you not going to comply with it? I'm complying with state and federal laws. Well, we are the federal law. Well, you better do it. You better do it because you're not going to get any federal funding at all if you don't. And by the way your population, even though it's somewhat liberal, although I did very well there, your population doesn't want men playing in women's sports. So you better come. You better to comply because otherwise you're not getting any, any federal funding. Every state. Good. I'll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be a real easy one. And enjoy your life after, Governor, because I don't think you'll be in elected politics. That's Trump. That's Trump at his best, calling her out right there. It's a truth. It's a truth that even in your liberal state, people don't want this. We know that the numbers. Nobody wants this. Throw up that image one more time. Time. Nobody wants that obvious dude right there, right? He looks fit, like he's an athlete, right? Like that guy is probably just a perfectly fine athlete in high school and now he's crushing the chicks. And if you think that that's right, like, you're basically a fucking idiot. I don't even know what else to say. That's what Trump should have just said. You're a fucking idiot. Why are we doing this? And by the way, what Trump said about federal funding as it pertains to Maine is correct. Check this out. From Chuck Calesto. Breaking Report 2021. Data reveals that basically, basically 42% of Maine state revenue is provided by the federal government. Imagine what it is now. Maine's governor will never be elected to public office again. So congratulations to Maine's governor, Janet Mills. You want to pick this fight, cuz for some reason you want to see dudes beat chicks in wrestling? Well, it's going to cost your state about 42% of rev. And then I think the average person from Maine is going to be like, you know, maybe this isn't the hill to die on. Here's just. It's a little unclear to me whether Donald Trump is trolling here or not. But here's just some audio of Trump repeatedly calling Janet Mills he. Trump referred to Governor Mills as he or him at least six times in that call. Whatever is going on with him. Radical left governor. So that's the plan already. He wants to resettle 75,000 migrants into Maine. That's only because they told him to do something. So he's weak and ineffective and they told him to do so. And he's saying, yes, sir, yes ma'am, I will do it. Look, I don't even know, like, I don't know if Trump had made a mistake right there. The guy's Firing on all cylinders for quite some time right now. Or he was just masterfully trolling. But, like, I don't know, we just felt like throwing that in there. Check this out, because Governor Janet Mills, whether he is a he or he is a she or she is a he or it is a what or whatever she's into. Dress. Video resurfaces of Maine Governor Janet Mills performing at a Halloween drag show. Yeah, look at that. That's the governor of Maine. How proud they must be to have that person at the giant LGBTQ Halloween ball dancing around. That's really what we need out of our government officials. It goes without saying, if you're an adult and you want to dress however you want and dance with a bunch of other adults. Adults. And pretend you're all different genders, that's all within your right. But stop having little boys beat up little girls in sports. We've got some other good news coming out of the government right now. That's a good fight that Donald Trump's picking right there. It's an obvious win, but we've got one more that I heard last night, and it's actually. Well, first, the Cash Patel part, because we were away for a week. Cash Patel, Yeah. He was confirmed as FBI director, 51 to 49, which is absolutely fantastic. This guy is going in to crack skulls. Here is a bit of video of Cash at a swearing in speech, and he's calling out the right people. Look, I know the media's in here, and if you have a target that targets right here, it's not the men and women at the FBI. You've written everything you possibly can about me. That's fake, malicious, slanderous, and defamatory. Keep it coming. Bring it on. Believe the men and women, the FBI, out of it. They deserve better. All right, so look, I. I think Cash is going to do a great job. What we need are fighters, right? We need. We need fighters who are not afraid of the media. What was my. My big argument for Pete Hegseth was that he was doing two things. Not only does he have a great pedigree, but as a TV host, he's ready to get in there and do proper messaging, and that's what they're going to fear most. Cash, he's a little more gruff on the side. You know, he's got that kind of look and whatever, but, like, he's really ready for the fight. And then I saw this one last night, and I am just. I'm actually elated. I am over the moon as they Say, check this out from Donald Trump. Great news for law enforcement and American justice. Dan Bongino, a man of incredible love and passion for our country, has just been named the Deputy Director of the FBI by the man who will be the best ever, Director Kash Patel. Dan has a Master's degree in psychology from CUNY and an MBA from Penn State. He was a member of the New York Police Department, New York's finest. A highly respected special agent with the US Secret Service, and now one of the most successful podcasters in the country. Something he is willingly and prepared to give up in order to serve. Working with our great new United States Attorney General Pam Bondi and Director Patel, Fairness, justice, law and order will be brought back to America. And quickly. Congratulations, Dan. Dan tweeted this out last night. Thank you, Mr. President, Attorney General Bondi and Director Director Patel. Let me just. Before we throw to a video, Dan, let me just say something here because I, I know Dan really well. Dan and I obviously have worked together with Rumble and Locals for years. It was probably four or five years ago when we started Locals and the Rumble guys reached out to us and we were trying to figure out, as we were in the midst of the free speech fight, as people were having their YouTube channels deleted and people were being kicked off x Twitter like the President of the United States States, and we had the entire machine assaulting us and everything else. And Dan and I took a call and we had never spoke before. We obviously knew each other from public life or whatever, but we. But we took a call and didn't even discuss business. It was just like, man, we are in this fight together. Is there a way we can bring our two companies together? But it wasn't from a business perspective. It was sort of more like, do we really see the world the same way and do we want to be in on this fight together? And in these years, obviously, eventually, Locals and Rumble merged and we've been at the forefront of the fight of free speech. Dan has proven himself to me time and time again, despite some differences. We've had. We've had a couple blowouts on the phone and some other things over the years with different approaches to this or that, has proven himself to me to be a man of unbelievable integrity who will pick every fight. Sometimes we would argue about certain he'd be fighting everybody, and I'd be saying, you know, sometimes you gotta. You gotta bob and weave a little bit and not pick every fight and whatever. And that's. Everyone has their own strategy. But I know him to be A man of integrity who loves this country. And let me say something else. You know, Dan is going to do fine financially, right? Like, he's got a chunk of rumble, he's got cash, but he has the. I think it is the number one news podcast online. Like, we're always in the top 10. That's awesome. Sometimes we're in the top five. Occasionally we're in the top three on any given day. But Dan's show is the number one streaming news show. He's giving that up. That's millions and millions of dollars that he's given up. And it doesn't matter if he has that many millions more. It does not matter. He's doing that to say, I want to do something for the country. Elon Musk has all of these jobs. He doesn't have to worry about money. But he's doing this for free right now. David Sacks, who's the head of the czar of crypto, he's doing it for free. All of these people that are coming in. So this has been the most amazing thing about Donald Trump. And what was my biggest worry about Trump a year and a half ago during the primaries? That he wasn't going to surround himself with the right people. Well, man, I am thrilled that I was wrong about that. Dan. Dan just could not be better. Here is example 42B. Nobody was held accountable. I was. Yeah. I mean, I was passionate about it for a reason. How many freaking times we're going to let the FBI interfere in an election? I mean, this is supposed to be a constitutional problem. I'm not crazy, right? Like, this is supposed to be a representative democracy. Banana republic. We're beyond a banana report. We're into like tinpot, dictator, third world stuff. This is embarrassing. At least Prabhda didn't pretend to be anything but state apparatchiks, the FBI. And then. Listen, I've been with you for a while. I work with a lot of decent guys. I'm done with the rank and file stuff, too. I'm done with it. If you took part in this, anyone who took part in this, anyone, I don't care who you are, an analyst or an upper level manager, the next president who comes in office, they should schedule as many people as they can in the federal government and fire every single person involved in this. Everyone that the receptionist in the FBI office who took a call on this should be fired. We are not a third world republic, supposedly, Sean. The difference between us and Kim Jong Un, right, is that we investigate crimes and then we look for people. We don't investigate people and then look for crimes. That is exactly what's going on. So there it is. A guy who's, who's from Queens, New York, who's a simple talking patriot. True Patriot is now giving up the number one online streaming show in the news to fight for his country. And I know how much he loves it. I've done his show a million times. We've broken bread a million times. He loves his freaking show. He loves the grind. He loves doing it. It's real passion. It's taken a toll on him to do it with the way he does it and everything else. And he's had health issues over the years, but he's given it up. He's given up his daily gig for literally millions of dollars to fight for something that is way bigger than him. And I think that's a beautiful thing. And it actually is a perfect segue to our final clip today. Because what do we need right now? What we need are more of you. We need more good people to basically say, to stand up and say, here I am and I will fight and I will do it honestly. And we will push away all of these weaklings, these liars and fraudsters and hucksters and these big shoulder pad wearing buffoons. And we can get good young people to be part of this thing that we are building right now and lead us into this golden age. J.D. vance had a little something to say about that. You know, you asked me, My message to young men is I think that our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge. You should try to cast aside your family. You should try to suppress what makes you a young man in the first place. And I think that my message to young men is don't allow this broken culture to send you a message that you're a bad person because you're a man, because you like to tell a joke, because you like to have a beer with your friends, or because you're competitive. It's our, like, our, our message. The, the cultural message, and I think the President's and mine is the exact opposite. But our cultural message is, I think that it wants to turn everybody into, whether male or female, into androgynous idiots who think the same, talk the same, and act the same. We actually think God made male and female for a purpose. And we want you guys to thrive as young men and as young women. And we're going to help with our public policy to make it possible to do so. Wouldn't that be something if we just have young men and young women who want to fight, fight for their country, who want to think differently, not just be automatons floating around who are useless in anything else other than serving the machine. And that's deeply connected to the way we're clearing the brush out of the government right now. And it's also deeply connected to this cultural insurgency that we're all part of right now, that good people are waking up, and we're gonna fix this thing, and we'll look back. Wouldn't that be beautiful, man? If we look back in that 10 years from now, when we're doing the postmortem on this whole thing, and we see, yeah, there were a whole bunch of bad guys, and why they did this, we don't know. And, okay, fine, that's how it was. But then we were like. But enough good guys all came together, and we stood up for the right thing. We saved the freaking country. Oh, and by the way, we saved ourselves at the exact same. At the exact same time. That, ladies and gentlemen, would be pretty freaking cool. All right, guys, Quick, cold, close, and we'll see you for the postgame show in 30 seconds. Rubenreport.locals.com Good to be back. See you tomorrow. Anybody who comes at us, know that we come back at you twice as hard. Preach right? You want us to come hard, you got us to come hard. So, seriously, I come hard in my sleep. All right, all right.
